Composer’s dream of Siti Nurhaliza singing his song comes true

COMPOSER Ippo Hafiz waited 10 years for Datuk Seri Siti Nurhaliza to sing his song Aku Bidadari Syurgamu, reported Berita Harian.

The song was included in Siti Nurhaliza’s recently released album ManifestaSITI2020.

“I had wanted to compose a song for her for so long. After waiting almost 10 years, my dream has finally become a reality.

“I believe this song can be a gift for her ballad-loving fans,” he said of the song, which contains ‘90s pop elements.

Ippo, whose real name is Muhammad Hafiz Yaziz, said novelist Siti Rosmizah wrote the lyrics.

Ippo’s music video for his new single Ainaa, which was composed with Hafiz Mahamad, has attracted one million views on YouTube.

Hafiz wrote the song to express his love for his wife Aina.
